Why does dreaming big sometimes feel terrifying? Why do we hit walls of fear, procrastination, and self-sabotage just when we start aiming higher? In this episode of Remember Your Greatness, I share my own journey of chasing big dreams — from Hollywood sets to filmmaking — and what I learned about the resistance that shows up along the way.

I discuss:
• Why old conditioning makes dreaming feel dangerous
• The real reason fear shows up when we aim higher
• Practical tools for working with fear (naming it, embodiment, micro-steps, connecting with your future self)
• Why spending time with other dreamers is essential
• Stories of clients and my own experience of breaking through walls

Big dreams aren’t just about reaching the destination. Even if you don’t get exactly what you imagined, you’ll become more than you ever thought possible along the way.

In this episode of Remember Your Greatness, I sit down with comedian-turned-transformational teacher Kyle Cease.

What starts as a conversation turns into a live coaching session — with me on the receiving end. We talk about fear, control, the illusion of money, and what it means to live from the soul instead of the mind.

This one is raw and vulnerable. I let myself be guided into territory I normally keep private. Kyle’s insights about presence, letting go, and trusting what wants to emerge really hit home.

If you’ve ever wrestled with fear, money stories, or the urge to control everything — this conversation is for you.

If you’re curious about your own greatness and ready to explore life without dogma, coercion, or fakery — follow along and join me here as we traverse inner space.

I’m Mark Vicente — filmmaker (What the Bleep Do We Know?!), author, speaker, spiritual geek, and cult whistleblower (HBO’s The Vow). Some of you might also know me from my darker podcast, WTF is On My Mind?!, where I’ve spent years diving into the shadows — cults, coercive control, narcissism, and the abuse of spirituality.

This channel is different. Remember Your Greatness is where I step out of the “spiritual closet” and finally bring forward the conversations that have fueled my private life, filmmaking and mentoring work for years. Here, we’ll explore questions like:
• What is the nature of existence?
• How do we reclaim spirituality — and creativity — on our own terms?
• What’s the line between bypassing life and fully embodying it?
• How do we step into our authentic voice and message in the world?
• And seriously… what the heck is enlightenment?

I’ll be honest: I’m nervous about this. I don’t want to be seen as an authority or have anyone give up their autonomy. I don’t have “the answers.” What I do have is lived experience — the curiosity, the missteps, the breakthroughs, and the wonder.

So don’t expect polish or perfection. Expect real, unfiltered conversations — sometimes just me, sometimes with guests — about spirituality, creativity, healing, integrity, and the courage it takes to embody who we really are.

If you’re curious about your own greatness, and want to explore life without dogma, coercion, or fakery — you’re in the right place.
